Lower left rear suspension problem
Hi guys. Why is my fit lower by almost. .5inch to the left rear side than the right. Tried to get coilovers but still the same thing. Lowered by .5inch

Because the fit has significant left weight bias. Depending on your Coilover spring rates, you can calculate how much spring perch height adjustment you need to compensate for the bias.
With my 5kgf/mm front and 2.4kgf/mm rear spring rates, and a weighted 65.4% Front - 52.5% Left balance, the left side needs +7.59mm Front and +14.13mm Rear for the car to sit flat with an even LF/LR corner weight percentage.

The rear drivers shock, top was rusted, but it still retracted and bounced back. The rear passenger side would not bounce back and had similar rust.
Now the car has a much more enjoyable stiffer ride. I'm sure my front struts could also use replacement, but I highly recommend doing the rear first. I think I can go a few more years on my 09 without changing the front.
